‘Why Punjab police at our door’: Delhi BJP attacks Kejriwal

Delhi BJP president Adesh Gupta on Saturday slammed chief minister Arvind Kejriwal and asked why Punjab police are at the doors of BJP leaders in the national capital as BJP Delhi spokesperson Naveen Kumar Jindal said Punjab police on Saturday arrive at his home to arrest him. Before this, Punjab police filed an FIR against Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga. “What is their crime? They exposed Kejriwal on social media,” Adesh Gupta said.

BJP MP Parvesh Sahib Singh played a purported video clip of Arvind Kejriwal in the press meet where he could be heard saying that he (Kejriwal) would not indulge in the politics of mudslinging. “If 4-5 of these people who abuse on social media are arrested, others will get the message,” Kejriwal purportedly said in the video.

“BJP is in the power in over half the states in India. But we don’t have that pride. If we want we can also file FIR against your leaders. But BJP does not believe in this kind of politics,” Parvesh Singh said.

Accusing Kejriwal of misusing Punjab police, Parvesh Singh said Punjab police were tapping Tajinder Singh’s phone. “He changed his location 4 times, but police reached him,” Singh said.

Talking about the Punjab police’s reported action on Naveen Kumar, Parvesh Singh said, “Cops came in a private car, not in an official car. Now they are standing in front of Naveen Kumar’s residence. They will arrest him and take him to Punjab.”

“Instead of arresting drugs mafia as they promised, Punjab Police today are keen on getting brownie points. There is a competition among Punjab DSPs that who first get to arrest Naveen ji or Bagga ji and get a promotion,” Singh said.
